Playin' In The Band
Nov. 24, 1972
Dallas Memorial Auditorium

Wow, seemingly a very overlooked gem. Tension and release, weaving effortlessly from mellow jam segments to soaring peaks, without screechy breakdown

Jahrhunderthalle

Moseying version. Jerry lays down buttery licks and Keith rides some nice fills. Zippidy doo dah tuning jam to follow

Saint of Circumstance

Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum

Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

I always liked this version. The boys gel together nicely for a peaky crescendo

I really urge people to spin this one. Such a creative jam out of NFA. Brimming w creativity. My favorite version for sure

Dirty version, solid stuff

Glad to hear Cuse! Jort army standard issue uniform includes: pink tank top (can be supplemented with the occasional Madonna T shirt), 80's reflective sun glasses, tube socks, and of course, pre-cut, frayed 8 inch regulation denim jorts. Damn bobby's steeze got weird... Guy is the man though, so I applaud him just being himself. Easily the unsung hero of the band and the guy that gets the most shit (besides donna, of course)

Dug it, thanks a lot! The way you feel about this version is the way i feel about 5-9-79. Literally the best bobby/jerry interplay i have ever heard, featured in the end jam. I implore people to listen - you will not be disappointed. Again though, this version is really sweet. Sorry for the highjack!
